Here in Chicago they are "shooting" to get buses completely cleaned, e.g.
with hose - downs every two weeks...considering the inefficiency of the CTA
that *may* happen about c. 2015.

Otherwise they just sweep out the most egregrious trash every day or so.
The buses here are generally filthy...as are the L cars.
